Down to Earth Machine Embroidery Design Instructions
What you will need:
4 metres of fabric, I always purchase more than I need, just in case. This includes the backing fabric you need to stitch all the designs down.
4 metres of light or medium weight wadding, I used light.
1.5 metres of red and white gingham fabric
Tear away
The following photo is a guide to the numbering system for you to follow to make the quilt
For each of the designs I used a light weight wadding and a tear away
Stitch out the following “Down to Earth” designs 001 to 030 to make the quilt
Find the centre of your backing fabric and mark the fabric as seen in the photograph
Lightly glue, I used a hot glue gun and glue the design 005 down where you marked your centre and then zig zag stitch the design down to your background fabric.
Above 005 lightly glue 008 down and zig zag stitch the design down to your background fabric.
Keep going with lightly gluing the design and then zig zag stitching all the designs down.
You can then finish the quilt any way that would best suit you. I would have used the red and white gingham fabric as the background fabric but I did not have enough of the fabric so I put the gingham fabric on the outside of the quilt.
